When mods don't go as planned

Just enough attitude to piss off the anal retentitive but not quite a squatter, I love it.

 

Put a Hemi in it.

 

I like it

 

Lift springs do wear out…best to get new lift springs…. Blocks or add-a lift…um? May help…
But down the road when you carry heavy things in the bed…the worn out springs…may not perform…as well…
You can alway add either a one block or add-a- lift….to your new springs..

my friend actually went to a spring shop, had them built new springs , plus he wanted to be able to carry heavier loads, they can arch, to any height you may want…

a empty level truck..looks nice, but when loaded..ugly…. For my self I prefer a higher rake in the rear, if loaded with gear…may not look lopsided….

purpose of most truck owners is to be able carry bigger ,heavier loads, plus the toys- bikes,camping gear, etc

Well the mod went wrong when you first bought rough country.

 

There's one in every crowd.
Thanks though.

I don't think it looks bad, honestly

 

It's driving me crazy.
New engine going in around the new year so it's no rush but I gotta fix it.

 

I installed the Torch .15"-2.0" AAL, Wednesday night. My initial thoughts are that I like it. I forgot to measure the before but I'm sure I got at least the 2", or at least it looks that way. I am/was on stock, sagged leafs in the back and a 2" lift in the front. The rear now feels firm but not harsh and it looks much better.
Some of these guys will insist you spend the $600 to buy new leaf packs but the AAL was inexpensive, and will suffice for now. It's not like you're going to hurt your stock springs, they're crap anyway. If it gets me a couple of years, I'll worry about a full pack then. I haul occasionally but the AAL will still be much better than stock.
Also, there's a real steep hill near my house with a stop sign at the top. I get much less bucking at take off now.
Be prepared to adjust your headlights back up!
Just do the AAL and worry about full springs later.

 

I know mine is a DCLB compared to RC, but Dobinsons leafs are what I bought(the HD ones). @Crikeymike should be able to get you sorted out. This is a Dobinsons IMS with HD leafs on 33x10.5's

 

Most kits are built around a DCSB so you would have gotten more lift up front without the heavier cab
